Hi,

There are many ways to do this.

Option 1 :
Export all sql server tables as Flat Files
Write Fastload/Multiload scripts to load data into teradata database

Option 2:
You can use DTS(external tool come along with SQL Server) to move the data from Sql server to teradata.
This migration may take more time as we are going to use ODBC connection to TERADATA.


Option3:
if your project does have any ETL tools like Informatica/Datastage then you can develop the jobs to do the data migration.

Hi,
I agree with the other reply.
I have done a similar thing with Oracle. The best tool to use is Informatica.

Step to be followed:
1. Create Flat File from the SQL database.
2. Load the data in the Flat File into Teradata. You need to use Push Down Optimization option in Informatica.

It worked verywell.

Thanks,

Giri.

What if one wants to migrate only the DB schema from SQL Server to Teradata not the User data. Does SQL server has any built-in functions that provide this functionality. How else could this be done ?
